[PATCH v3 02/15] mm/memfd: Introduce MFD_INACCESSIBLE flag

Introduce a new memfd_create() flag indicating the content of the
created memfd is inaccessible from userspace. It does this by force
setting F_SEAL_INACCESSIBLE seal when the file is created. It also set
F_SEAL_SEAL to prevent future sealing, which means, it can not coexist
with MFD_ALLOW_SEALING.
